(Begginer on JSF) need help with a4j:support and c:forEach

[Valmir Cinquini]

Its possible make an a4j:support tag re-render a html tableuma built with c:forEach?

For example, I have a menu which calls a bean method each time the user changed it

<h:selectOneMenu id="lstStatus" value="#{Lotes.status}">  
           <f:selectItems value="#{Lotes.lista}"/>  
              <a4j:support event="onchange" action="#{Lotes.selectChanged}" reRender="#{lote}"/>  
        </h:selectOneMenu>

so it alters the table below:

<c:forEach var="lote" items="${Lotes.lista}">  
         <tr>  
             <td width="0" class="menuTabelaTotal"><div align="center"><c:out value="${lote.valorInformado}"/></div></td>  
             <td width="1" class="fundoTabela"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="1"></td>  
             <td width="0" class="menuTabelaTotal"><div align="center"><c:out value="${lote.valorLote}"/></div></td>  
             <td width="1" class="fundoTabela"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="1"></td>  
             <td width="0" class="menuTabelaTotal"><div align="center"><c:out value="${lote.statusLote.descricao}"/></div></td>  
         </tr>  
</c:forEach>

The bean works fine, I can see throught debugger, but the forEach is not rendered again.

If it's not possible, which alternative do I have? I tried to use data table, but the layout that the webdesigner guy created ended up a little messed, and the guy became kinda angry...

Firstly, I'd switch to ui:repeat instead of the c:forEach (JSTL and JSF don't mix well, Ed Burs commented on that somewhere, just not sure where). Secondly, put your table into an a4jutputPanel and reRender the panel.
